According to La Pizza Week, “From May 1st to May 7th, over 500 restaurants nationwide will unveil their unique twists on everyone’s favourite dish, offering a slice of fun to pizza lovers from coast to coast.”

During La Pizza Week, participating restaurants will be putting out limited-edition pizzas crafted exclusively for the festival.

La Pizza Week states “As chefs collaborate to brainstorm unique recipes and experiment with unconventional ingredients (especially those restaurants that don’t traditionally serve pizza!) creativity flourishes, leading to exciting creations that reflect the essence of each restaurant’s unique brand identity.”

You can get involved, too!

Customers can then participate by trying these new and exciting pizza creations, ordering them through the festival sponsor, DoorDash, sharing their experiences on social media, and voting for their favourites here.

They’ll also be able to rack up YUM points and redeem them for pizzas throughout the week-long event.

Different ways to earn YUMS include signing up for La Pizza Week, voting for pizzas, and tagging @LaPizzaWeek on Instagram.

Those with the most “YUMS” have a chance to win DoorDash gift cards ranging from $100-$500.

The official restaurant list will be out soon so keep your eyes peeled.
